Can't remove source

Added the wrong source, it will not go away, it gives enough of a response to channels DVR server to keep it around.

just keep getting this filling my logs,
2022/11/27 13:18:19.072865 [ERR] Failed to parse HDHR #15307AF7 lineup: invalid character '<' looking for beginning of value

2022/11/27 13:19:25.212133 [ERR] Failed to parse HDHR #15307AF7 lineup: invalid character '<' looking for beginning of value

if i unplug it and restart channels-dvr service, its gone but comes back once the device is back on my network. It's actually a SiliconDust ServIO unit

Did you Set Provider for it?
Set Provider

If so, you should be able to Remove Provider using the :gear: dropdowm.
Remove Provider

Then, although the device will still show in Sources, it won't be used.

You can also remove it using curl from a command line
Replace 127.0.0.1:8089 with your Channels DVR Server IP address and port
curl -XDELETE http://127.0.0.1:8089/devices/15307AF7
Then restart Channels DVR

If you added it by IP address, it can also be removed using curl
Screenshot 2022-11-27 at 11-51-08 Channels Settings

Replace 127.0.0.1:8089 with your Channels DVR Server IP address and port
curl -XDELETE http://127.0.0.1:8089/devices?ip=172.22.22.5
This will forget the manually entered IP.
Verify by checking that http://127.0.0.1:8089/settings no longer contains
"device.manual.172.22.22.5":"true"
Then restart Channels DVR

So it wouldn't let me set provider at all, but, the curl -XDELETE*172.22.22.5 command worked, it disappeared from settings and admin/settings in a normal browser after restarting the channels service.

Thank you!

I recently have had some hardware issues with HDHomeRun devices... I've been swapping them around, calling and re-doing cable card activations, etc etc. This info on how to delete a specific tuner has been invaluable! I must have referred to the instructions in here 5 times this past month.
